Good morning and happy Friday! Today I am so excited to be sharing with you some of our newest TuesdaysTogether groups! As our groups grow throughout the country and the world, we decided it would be fun to give you a peek into some of their cities, with a guide to some of their favorite hang-outs. Without further ado, get an inside look at La Porte, Cape Cod & Huntsville.

Tell us about yourself in one sentence:
I am a professional photographer, musician, avid lover of Chickfila, wife to Aaron and momma to William.
Your favorite local hangout?
Definitely Temple News Agency. They have the best coffee, ice cream, staff, and they have the cutest store front! It’s a La Porte staple. You can’t visit La Porte without stopping here!
Your favorite local cuisine?
Wow, um, all of them? But the one I always come back to is Mucho Mas. Aside from their phenomenal cali style fresh-mex dishes for lunch or dinner, they also have a fantastic Sunday brunch!
What’s your favorite thing about your city?
Our antique shops and many lakes! We are the perfect blend of the farm life, city life, and lake life. La Porte can be anything you want it to be, and I love that!

Meet the Leader: Keri Ketterer

Tell us about yourself in one sentence:
I’m the owner, heart and wedding planner behind Always Yours Events, and a creative gal fueled by love, addicted to blooms, grateful for the love of my life (Sean), and always in the pursuit of grace.
Your favorite local hangout?
There are so many sweet little Main Streets and downtown areas all over Cape Cod, but my shout outs go to be Coffee Obsession and Ben and Bill’s Ice Cream in Falmouth. Take your cruiser bike (with a basket, of course) to into town, pick up an iced latte with a fresh croissant or a cup of homemade Cake Batter ice cream and head down to Surf Drive Beach for a quick break or walk along the bike path.
Your favorite local cuisine?
Oh, this is so tough because there are so many great places to dine here! A local hidden gem and favorite of mine is the Chart Room in Pocasset. On a warm Summer day sit out on the patio with a huge lobster roll, a mudslide and good company overlooking the harbor!
What’s your favorite thing about your city?
The “feel” of the Cape! It’s the seaside scenery combined with the charming small towns strewn throughout the coast that create such a welcoming and warm vibe. The Cape cottages, the quaint Main Streets, the dunes and lighthouses… I’m so grateful to call this my home!

Meet the Leader: Jacki Gil

Tell us about yourself in one sentence:
I am a lover of all things paper, fabulous fonts, Mexican food and the coast!
Your favorite local hangout?
My favorite local hangout is my best friends bar, Stem & Stein in Madison, AL. It has way above average bar food, and 1 million wine and beer choices.
Your favorite local cuisine?
I feel like anyone who knows me could answer this question for me; it’s Rosie’s Mexican Cantina. I would drink the cheese dip with a straw, and I know I’m not the only one in Huntsville that would do that.
What’s your favorite thing about your city?
My favorite thing about Huntsville is that it’s a hidden gem. Besides maybe a Trader Joe’s, we’ve got just about everything a “big city” has, but with a small town feel. We don’t have the huge traffic jams of the bigger cities, and we have a huge variety of outdoor landscapes within minutes. I feel like we really are the “next big thing”.
